Opening an Elizabeth Chadwick novel is like meeting an old friend . . . This book was a particularly special encounter for me because I was reading for the first time the debut novel of an author I have come to love . . . No wonder there was a clamour for this reprint' Sue McNab, Essentials Guide * `Unashamedly romantic and full of that precise historical detail which makes Chadwick's novels so rewarding, this is a reminder that this author's talents were built to last' Wigan Evening Post *
A cracking read . . . As with all Chadwick sagas we get strong, memorable characters, richly-realised historic settings and terrific storytelling' Keighley News
